Binckhorst, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis listing does not state a year of construction. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. The apartment is on Saturnusstraat in the Binckhorst, a former industrial area in Den Haag that is being redeveloped. At €675,000, the price is 22% above the neighbourhood average of €552,443, which is on the high side. For context, apartments in Den Haag vary widely.
Two residents describe the Binckhorst as an industrial area with a few houses. One says: "It's a neighbourhood with virtually no amenities. Recently a very small Albert Heijn opened, but you can hardly buy anything there. Apart from that, there are no facilities, and there's basically no nature." Another adds: "No greenery in the Binckhorst, no supermarkets in the neighbourhood. Quite dangerous in the evening. And there is a lot of litter." The neighbourhood has 2,075 residents, mostly singles and young adults, with a very high density of 3,743 addresses per km². The municipality Den Haag is working on redevelopment, but the area still feels unfinished.
For daily shopping, the nearest Albert Heijn is a ten-minute walk away, and a Hoogvliet and Jumbo are a bit further. There are several primary schools within walking distance, such as the Protestant Christian Groen van Prinsterer school (a five-minute walk) and KC de Telescoop (a couple of streets away). The area is well connected by bike and car, but a busy road runs through it, which can make cycling feel unsafe.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Frisia Makelaars B.V. The listing does not state the year of construction, so that detail is not available.

It's a neighbourhood with virtually no amenities. Recently a very small Albert Heijn opened, but you can hardly buy anything there. Apart from that, there are no facilities, and there's basically no nature. They are trying to make the neighbourhood nicer, though. It's easily accessible by bike and car, but that's also because there's a very busy road running through it. This makes some places dangerous for cyclists. There's a lot of litter, and it can be unsafe in the evening. Some lights don't work, and sometimes strange people are around. There isn't really a community since there are a lot of businesses in the area. There are also two reception centres that can sometimes cause nuisance in the evening and during the day (boys on fat bikes shouting things). This also makes safety less good, especially in the evening when there aren't many people around.

About Saturnusstraat 18-2007, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €675,000 is 22% above the average asking price in the Binckhorst (€552,443) and also above the median of €518,750. Recently sold homes in the neighbourhood went for an average of €593,146, so this apartment is priced on the high side. The energy label A++ is excellent, which adds value, but the location in a still-developing industrial area may not suit everyone.
The energy label is A++, which is the highest possible rating. This means the home is extremely energy-efficient, with very low heating and electricity costs. In the Binckhorst, nearly all homes have label A or A+, so this is in line with the neighbourhood.
Residents report safety concerns, especially in the evening. One review mentions that some lights don't work and that there can be nuisance from reception centres. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 524, which is relatively high for a small area. It's a factor to consider if you value a quiet, safe environment.
The Binckhorst has very few amenities. There is a small Albert Heijn, but residents say it's limited. For a full supermarket, you'd need to walk about 1.2 km. There are several primary schools within a 10-minute walk, and a train station is 1.7 km away. Restaurants and a childcare centre are closer, at 0.4 km.
The agent, Frisia Makelaars B.V., has not provided the year of construction in the listing. This detail is missing, so we cannot confirm how old the building is. The neighbourhood has many homes built after 2010, but this specific apartment's age is unknown.
The neighbourhood has few families with children (185 households) and a high proportion of singles. Residents mention a lack of green space and community feel, and safety concerns in the evening. While there are schools nearby, the area is more suited to young professionals or investors than families looking for a traditional residential area.
